Nice skimmer, i went on their website and found a lot of good things.

I wonder how quiet is it?
Is the pump silent?

if you get from China make sure it is 110V. I got mine from nuocean. Mine is in living room so i don't really care about the noise, the pump that produces air buble does make some noise like boiling water.

It is pretty quiet. If I listen for it I can hear it but it is barely noticable. The sound of the water going over baffles in the sump and return pump are louder.

did anyone have to pay any additional fees (customs, brokerage, tax, etc) on top of list price + shipping when you purchased from reefshops?

I didn't but in my experience it is hit and miss. Depends on the Canada Post employees mood when they process your parcel

So you may have to pay.

Nice thing about Canada Post is you will only pay the taxes and $5 brokerage. Not a percentage, like UPS!!
